11 Holes-In-One In A SINGLE Round of Golf!
:D

<snip>

SEOUL (Reuters) - North Korea's Dear Leader Kim Jong-il never forgets a phone number, a cadre's career or a line of computer code.

According to an article posted Tuesday on a Web site run by North Korea, Kim wakes up early every day for intensive memory training where he sits down and commits to his keen mind items such as the phone numbers of workers in his Stalinist state.

"I remember all computer codes and telephones that workers are using now," Kim was quoted as saying on the Web Site "Uri-Min-jok-kiri" (www.uriminzokkiri.dprkorea.com), or "Among our People."

<snip>

Kim pilots jet fighters, pens operas, produces movies and accomplished a feat unmatched in the annals of professional golf by shooting 11 holes-in-one on the first round he ever played.

The Web Site said Kim told all workers they should develop their ability to memorize. "The memory of a person gets better when a person uses their brain often," he was quoted as saying.

3. And it was the first round he ever played ...

I came within 4.5 inches from a hole-in-one the second time I ever played. Clearly a lucky shot.

BUT 11 in one round, Yowza.

Cheers
Drifter

7. IL-Money only has a 60 Division Army ( !!!!!! ) so he doesn't embarrass
the United States and allies by singlehandedly pushing them back to the shores of S Korea.

9. What they forgot to mention was that it was miniature golf
North Korea has some of the best mini golf courses around. At Royal Pyongyang, for instnace, the signature hole features a starving peasant chasing after your ball and trying to eat it. :-)
